For both Value and Raw Value bindings, it's necessary to select an option set field as the basis for differentiating the records. After selecting the appropriate field, choose a style that specifies how the map pins should be formatted. The chosen style must be either ImageCellStyle or its child. | For both Value and Raw Value bindings, it's necessary to select an option set field as the basis for differentiating the records.
